Binding of methylene blue onto Langmuir monolayers representing cell membranes may explain its efficiency as photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy

We provide evidence for the electrostatic interactions between the cationic photosensitizer methylene blue (MB) and cell membrane models represented by neat and mixed Langmuir monolayers of dioleylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC) and 1,1',2,2'-tetraoleoylcardiolipin (CL). From surface pressure m...
